Southwark Council Anmeldelser 130

Trustpilot needs a ZERO STAR option for what is the most poorly run council in the UK.
If you're thinking of moving to Southwark and have Southwark as a Service provider - just don't bother.
They could not arrange a cube of ice in Antartica.
Absolute muppets for management, a shockingly bad website and service systems.
Key workers over stretched or just don't care anymore.
Moral and social responsibility non-existent...
And don't bother complaining - you'll get more response punching a silk curtain...

The Southwark Council Tax Office! Absolute Sc++m..My mother passed away last year and while I am still Grieving they quickly changed my Mothers name into my name and say I owe them 4-5 months Council Tax which I am not Liable..They empty my bins every Fortnight, That is all they do? At the moment I am paying a monthly council Tax at a reduced rate because of Universal Credit, But I am not gonna be liable for past council tax Arrears which was in my moms name and was passed on to me.

Allow businesses to fix cars on streets and pavements.
The whole of parking services are corrupt and do nothing. They boast of awards but it is a complete fake scam.

Absolutely awful experience with the leaks from above team. I reported an issue 2 weeks ago and they still have not helped resolve it. They keep saying it's with the liaison team, but I am not able to speak to them as they are not in the office. This has been the case every time I call, so apparently they are managing important issues such as leaks and never in the office.

I just had a really amazing experience with the most lovely of people on the end of a phone. Maureen from the Penalty Notices Team needs to be congratulated on her kind and patient phone manner- it was such a pleasure to talk to her and she made my day. Keep up the good work. I'm sure that team rarely get thanked, but for their kind demeanour, they deserve to be. I hope this feedback can be passed on to Maureen.

Incompetence Southwark council. When are citizen going to realise that if we don’t vote for these incompetent politicians vote for people that respect its citizens. When they come into office it’s all about making money it’s not about us. When are we gonna realise this? They need our votes-stop giving it to them.

After waiting over six weeks for Southwark Council to reply to a Council Tax query, I opted to put my apartment on the market. During this period, I not only renovated and showcased the property but also secured a buyer, received and accepted an offer, and successfully completed the sale. With my departure from London, I'm relieved to say goodbye to council tax here, and I've found Southwark Council to be rather ineffective.

They should be ashamed, labour are now the new government, before they blaimed the Conservatives now they have noone to black because southwark council is the new government and they have got worse a lot worse, they dont care about people they will take your money send you fines, and have you on hold for a hours at a time and they honestly dont care about people who are born and bred in southwark, shamfull, wouldn't give my dad a parking space when he was dying of cancer, this country needs to wake up

I've never encountered a council as poor as this one; they seem indifferent and unhelpful. Unfortunately, moving to this borough is something I now regret.

Dealing with council tax is quite challenging. When they send an email about a notification on your account, and you try to view it by following the link, the notification remains elusive even after thoroughly exploring the entire council tax website. This situation can be quite anxiety-inducing as the notification might be crucial, leaving me completely in the dark about its content.

When SBS attended due to living room window will nit shut correctly and when to want to.open window wide as it has always done and all the other windows open wide.when they attended they spoke to me as though I was stupid saying none of windows open wide.because the way they spoke to me I rang one of my sons and he told them that up to a week ago it always did he was close to home they.could not get out quick enough.i spoke to a manager twice said someone will ring not happened this is a health and safety issue as all windows on the estate have to open wide in case of an emergency do not care

You never get any reply or customer service. I am trying to pay my council tax online and keep getting an error. My account does not seem to be linked to my online profile despite trying and contacting them. Incompetent at best. Reference: 56374625

Never experienced such a disgusting corrupt organisation in my life. From the the racist scamming housing officers and staff, who are majority African. There's tons of proof that they've been controlling the housing in Southwark for a couple of decades. This is the institutional racism that doesn't ever get spoken about. The racist staff who are against White people, bumping their black African and Caribbean friends and family up the list, taking payments for getting their people higher priority.
I've witnessed them directly helping and advising black people on how to get the highest priority possible, but won't mention a thing like that to me when I need help. Many have been jailed for these corrupt acts already, and more will be too, once they're finally caught. This is an epidemic and needs to be exposed, especially when we've got thousands upon thousands of unvetted illegal immigrants flooding the country everyday. They'll have full priority too; before we know it. Everybody in Southwark knows about this corruption, so how does it continue every single day??? It's disgusting.

Worst service of any public organisation I’ve ever dealt with. Staff seem to think it’s okay to totally ignore emails. No one ever answers the phone. Always out of office/sick/ holiday. Would love to work there. Seems like a breeze!

Southwark Council took over 6 weeks to respond to an enquiry about Council Tax. In that time, I decided to sell my apartment, renovated it, listed it, held viewings, found a buyer, received an offer, accepted the offer and sold the property. So no more council tax from me, London is done and Southwark Council are useless.

In short, they are vampires.

Southwark council does not care about their tenants.i live on ground floor have broken window trying to get mended they do not care had emergency people could not fix so booked for someone else to attend have not contacted us.all you get told someone will contact us never.last time it took us a year

They are ripping off drivers with pathetic warning signs that are so wordy you can’t read them before you have passed them and so close to the restricted sight it’s to late and bang you get a fine (PCN). The council is not fit for purpose and should be disbanded

Southwark Council are listed on our property title as the Freeholder. Could we get them to supply a HIP? No. After 5 months, including following their official complaints process we gave up. It resulted in us having to co-fund an indemnity policy for our buyer against the council. Completely not fit for purpose at any level.

They do not care about helping British locals who were born here.
